Joe Bell:
For an emergency call, if it's during the week, if someone's in pain, we always try to seem them on the day that they call. At some point in time during that day, we need to see them just to see what's going on and see if it is truly an emergency, if it's something that can be fixed fairly simply right then, if it's something else that needs to have some initial attention, and then another reappointment to handle the bigger underlying problem. We try to see them the day that they call.
For our people of record, someone that has been in our practice, and they call us, our business card has our home phone numbers on it, and I've been called many, many times at home, and we live five minutes from the office, and we can be there to see them, and in an emergency, it's not convenient for anyone. That's why they call it that, but sometimes an emergency call just needs to be a reassurance of what it is that's going on. Lots of times, that person needs to be seen because there's a problem. Obviously, there's some issue, or else they wouldn't have called you, so after hours, weekends, we're available.

Receive Emergency Dental Treatment When You Need It Most
It’s always a good idea to practice caution when it comes to protecting your teeth and gums. But the truth is, a dental emergency can happen to anyone at any time. When it does, you can count on Bell & Bell Dentistry for help.
Drs. David and Joe Bell bring decades of experience to our dentist office. That means we’re able to take swift action to help you get out of pain and address a wide range of dental problems using the latest techniques.
Some of the most common dental problems we see that require immediate care include:
- A Toothache — You never have to question whether dental pain justifies an emergency visit to our dentist office! Pain is a red flag that something is wrong, and a toothache is no exception. It could be a symptom of infection, which we can treat with a root canal. We will carefully remove the infection, disinfect the area, and save your tooth so your other teeth, and your smile overall, remain healthy.
- A Decayed or Damaged Tooth — Sometimes, dental pain and damage can result from tooth decay or trauma. If you have a chipped, cracked, or broken tooth, it can pose a threat to your surrounding teeth by allowing harmful bacteria access to the inside of your tooth. We can prevent that with a durable, natural-looking dental crown so your healthy, beautiful smile stays intact.
- A Loose or Missing Tooth — Every highly skilled dentist knows that preserving your natural tooth is ideal. That’s why we do all we can to save your loose or knocked-out tooth whenever possible. On your way to our office, you can keep a lost tooth in a sealed container of milk or saltwater, or carefully place it inside the socket until you receive treatment. When saving a tooth is not an option, we can rely on dental bridges or dental implants to preserve the function, health, and appearance of your smile.
